Mod Emporium review
Hello All,
Just wanted to share my experience when dealing with Mod Emporium and Vince. I know Vince through an M group chat, and through there I decided to upgrade my F8x headlights. it was a very simple process, I showed him which headlights were on my vehicle and he gave me a layout of all the available upgrades for my vehicle. Transaction was easy enough though PayPal. I didn't need to worry about shipping as Vice worked with me and told me to just drop them off at his home address (which was convenient as I live in northern NJ and he's in Long Island NY). Saved me about 200 dollars in shipping one way. When removing the headlights he was able to provide me with tips and tricks to make the process as easy as possible. I ended up damaging one of the brackets and the locktite nut/bolt assembly and he replaced them for free. Guy really goes above and beyond. Overall he gave me a great discount, and kept me in the loop as each thing was done from painting the inner housing, to the ring upgrades, etc and hooked me up with a few upgrades along the way. I would deff recommend him and trust me this guy takes alot of pride in his work. His OCD drives him nuts if things don't align the same! so long story short, great guy, great work 10/10 would recommend. check him out on IG ModEmporium |

I unfortunately cannot support this company. As mentioned, Vince was very accommodating and provided great customer service from date of purchase to questions after install. Unfortunately, once things started to fail in the headlights, the seller plain out ignored my messages. The headlights produce SIGNIFICANT condensation after EVERY car wash (for which he does not claim any responsibility), I get continuous daytime running light errors (I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and call this an issue with my car), but worse off, the switchback eyebrows discoloured after less than 2 years of use. Vince claims he would be sending me a replacement part 4 months ago, yet I have not received it. Now message after message I send him, he ignores my messages. All I’m asking for now is simple guidance on how I can turn off the eyebrows and he chooses to ignore my messages. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS BUYER unless you want to replace your headlights every 2 years. Unfortunately for him, I know a lot of influential people in the F80 community that I will be sharing my warning with. Do yourself a favour and stay away

Whats up Victor. It's unfortunate to hear you are upset. You are over a year out of warranty and have a manufacturing defect unrelated to our installation. As we discussed previously, sending your lights in for repair is the only way we can resolve this issue. Significant condensation is usually because you have an open access panel, however some condensation is normal as there are a half dozen vents on the back of the headlights. As far as errors, you have bad drl modules, unrelated to our work. But like we have always said and continue to do so- We will happily repair the defect that occurred from the manufacturer BavGruppe designs, out of warranty. You just need to send the lights in. Our company doesnt even charge labor for this. We eat it up and take a loss, we charge for the parts (at our cost) and shipping that's all. |

False advertising
Mod_Emporium is ran by a swindler, Vince. As you can see when issues arose for F10toF80 he denies. I called him out for photoshopping a picture to give people a false idea of how dark he could get the lights, where you can clearly see the aluminum hood became 'wavy' at the perimeter. In which he claims was not, and BMW makes squiggly lines. Anybody could easily see it was photoshopped to appear darker. He then proceeded to let me know I'm stupid. Don't get hustled by this guy, he can't even photoshop well. How are you going to trust he knows what he's doing with headlights. CLOWN.

You clearly don't know what we do as a company. You could just push the car owners page and see his photos as we don't get take the photos, they do. This post you made definitely proves everything. Have a better day brother. |

What you should do I go ask the owner about the photo he took and its details so you can stop making a clown out of yourself.
No idea why you're in a rage, Have a better day. |

Not hard to understand if you read it Vince, your literacy is as good as your photoshop skills. See original post where I added the photo. Your best bet would be to blame the car owner for photoshopping it now. And I know you like a good excuse. Let me know if you want to meet up, I'd love to show you who I am and send you back to New York.

Avoid this "company" at all costs if you don't want to feel like you got ripped off. The work is very amateurish. I had to reopen the headlights to remove a bunch of old sealant that was left inside and reseal them myself. Terrible experience.
